CaiQp NotcH, ^Last. .Sunday was a record-hreaker

for tho nun(4t)er of visitors coming to the camp, when it was estimated that fiilly 260.000 people were present dur­ing the day. The great throng caused the biggest congestion since the estab­lishment of the camp and kept the military guards and civilian oflicers busy all day. So largo was the crowd tha t . an electric car conductor walked ahead of his car clearing a passage way for it to proceed. The day, as all Sundays tha t preceded it. was free from accidents of any kind.

The youngest recrui t In the camp is John F, Grady, fourteen years of age, who has .been adopted by the SOth Company, Sth Battalion. The boy's uncle and only relative. Charles Tagherson. of Dedham. was drafted ana - brought the youngster to camp wllh him. One of the conditions of _hO—boy .beings allowed to remain -dt the camp is that he must attend school In Ayer every day.

Forty-five enlisted men arrived on Tuesday night from California to Join the 25th , regiment of engineers.

Clifford French, of Thomaston, Conn,, came into camp a sick man and he went Immediately to the Isolation ward In the base hospital. They-ob­served the same precautions for which the ar ray , achieved fame a t Panama and Havana, with the result that not another man ca-light the disease, spinal meningitis. French died a few days ago.

A plan for the Improvement of the main road between the camp and Ayer village has been developed by the state highway commission and Middle­sex county commissioners, whereby the s ta te pays one-ha)f, the county iwo-thlrds and Ayer one-third of the im­provement. It will moun t ' up into the thousands, as a fine road Is planned. The selectmen can see no way to finance" their share of the cost and balk at the proposal. They claim they im­proved the road once and have addi­tional taxes to bear without a propor­tionate return In additional taxes. The construction quar te rmas te r points to twenty-five.miles of flne roadways in the camp as the national government's share in road building.

So much interest has been shown in the main camp t l i a t ^ h e remount 'sta-" tion has escaped the attention of camp visitors. The station covers many acres on the left ot the Greenville branch t rack and extends westward to the Nashua river. Already there is a garrison of 265 men. 100 of whom are veterans In the service, and the rest selected from t h e draft. There are "great corrals for the horses, out-door feeding cribs, running water barracks for the men and stables.-' ' "

A few of the men"oT'tHe 2Sth regi­ment of engineers have the measles-and are under quarant ine.

. So many of the recruits have been rejected for physical reasons that many more, perhaps 4000, will be called. It is expected that the full nuniber to be
